Nicholas Sparks Talks ‘Counting Miracles’ and More at His North Carolina Home
Nicholas Sparks’s sprawling home in New Bern, N.C., didn’t always look like a museum.
For close to 10 years, the three-story, riverfront house was overrun with the author’s five children, who threw footballs in the living room and completed their homework at the now fully dressed dining room table custom-built for 10.
“It was an active, busy household for a long time,” Mr. Sparks said. “At one point, there were four dogs and about 13 people living here — myself, my now ex-wife, our five children, an exchange student, and friends.”
